We all know that London and England as a whole are known for their poise, simple beauty and royalty of course, but what happens when all that you’ve ever known about London becomes something of the past in a matter of a few short hours. Listen to the story of Anthony Bourdain and the “Parts Unknown” crew when they were in London for the Brexit vote. It will leave you feeling completely shocked.
Key Takeaways:
- What we wanted and expected to be a happy, carefree, food-centric show became squeezed by the sudden arrival of an elephant in the room.
- They assumed that since everyone they knew felt the same way, that there was little chance that the nation would so suddenly and drastically change course.
- The drinking, never pretty to start with in England, became even uglier as people drowned their sorrows and their fears for the future in many pints.
